When a Nation Forgets God

7 Lessons We Must Learn from Nazi Germany

By: Erwin W. Lutzer

Narrated by: Sean Duffy

This excellent book is so important. It clearly and powerfully explains what the parallels are between Germany's fall from grace and the beginning of our own fall. (Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy)

In When A Nation Forgets God, Erwin Lutzer studies seven similarities between Nazi Germany and America today — some of them chilling — and cautions us to respond accordingly. Engaging, well-researched, and easy to understand, Lutzer’s writing is that of a realist, one alarmed but unafraid. Amidst describing the messes of our nation’s government, economy, legal pitfalls, propaganda, and more, Lutzer points to the God who always has a plan.

At the beginning of the 20th Century, Nazi Germany didn’t look like a country on the brink of world-shaking terrors. It looked like America today. When a Nation Forgets God uses history to warn us of a future that none of us wants to see. It urges us to be ordinary heroes who speak up and take action.

Wild.

I don’t agree with everything but i do with most. Regardless much respect and it’s pretty incredible how the strategy used then is exactly what is being used now. Go figure.
I will purchase this book physically.

This.

Truth. Perspective appropriate - and sadly, uncommon. Encouraging as I prepare my people to cling to Christ and their cross and follow ever so closely, whatever that looks like.
Thank you!

Excellent appraisal of American politics in 2025-2026 It is a must read

Didn’t agree with everything but it is an essential read for 2026 America. Excellent research and a balanced view of Nazi Germany compared to what is happening in America.

What American Christian’s need to hear

I great historical evidence and reminder of biblical and world history to remind us of what is coming.
